We were deeply shocked and saddened to hear of the death of our dear friend and colleague, Mark Brinkman.
Juan and I worked with him at Compaq Computer Latin America. He was the PM for SAP project in Brazil and later worked with me in Supply Chain Management division. Mark was a beautiful person with a big heart! He will surely be missed by everyone who had the pleasure of meeting him. I remember he and his wife attended our wedding and gave us a very thoughtful gift. They framed our wedding invitation in a beautiful gold frame that hangs in our bedroom. He said that he appreciated that someone did this for them so they never forget their wedding day. Every time I look at the frame .. I think of him. May God rest his soul in peace. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family.

Teresa and family, my deepest sympathy for the passing of such a kind and uplifting soul. I worked with Mark back in the old Compaq days supporting customer service. No matter how tough things were, he could always manage a smile. Prayers and blessings to you all.
